I've been struggling with this for a few days now - I added bootstrap (and some other gems) to my rails app, but for some reason the appropriate CSS files are not rendering and thus the bootstrap styles are not showing up.
Here are the relevant parts of my files:
application.html.erb in app/views/layouts:
<head>
<title>Myapp</title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", :media => "all" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.github.com/twitter/bootstrap/master/js/bootstrap-dropdown.js"></script>
</head>
application.css in app/assets/stylesheets:
/*
* This is a manifest file that'll be compiled into application.css, which will include all the files
* listed below.
*
* Any CSS and SCSS file within this directory, lib/assets/stylesheets, vendor/assets/stylesheets,
* or vendor/assets/stylesheets of plugins, if any, can be referenced here using a relative path.
*
* You're free to add application-wide styles to this file and they'll appear at the top of the
* compiled file, but it's generally better to create a new file per style scope.
*
*= require_self
*= require_tree .
*/
(There are also plenty more CSS files in this folder, including bootstrap_and_overrides.css and gmaps4rails.css).
And the server log when I load the page:
$ rails server

=> Rails 3.2.8 application starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server

And the source code that actually gets rendered in Chrome:
<head>
<title>Myapp</title>
<link href="/assets/application.css?body=1" media="all" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="/assets/application.js?body=1" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.github.com/twitter/bootstrap/master/js/bootstrap-dropdown.js"></script>
</head>
And my Gemfile:
gem "bootstrap-sass", '~> 2.3.0.1'
gem "simple_form"
gem 'gmaps4rails'
And config/environments/development.rb:
config.cache_classes = false
# Log error messages when you accidentally call methods on nil.
config.whiny_nils = true
# Show full error reports and disable caching
config.consider_all_requests_local = true
config.action_controller.perform_caching = false
# Don't care if the mailer can't send
config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = false
# Print deprecation notices to the Rails logger
config.active_support.deprecation = :log
# Only use best-standards-support built into browsers
config.action_dispatch.best_standards_support = :builtin
# Raise exception on mass assignment protection for Active Record models
config.active_record.mass_assignment_sanitizer = :strict
# Log the query plan for queries taking more than this (works
# with SQLite, MySQL, and PostgreSQL)
config.active_record.auto_explain_threshold_in_seconds = 0.5
# Do not compress assets
config.assets.compress = false
# Expands the lines which load the assets
config.assets.debug = true
I have the assets pipeline in config/application.rb set to true and I haven't changed the debug settings. My RAILS_ENV is development. As I understand, rails should be compiling and serving all of the CSS files including boostrap_and_overrides.css.scss because of the require_tree . call. I've run rake assets:precompile and bundle exec rake assets:precompile multiple times, but I don't think that should matter. Im running ruby 2.0.0p0 (2013-02-24 revision 39474).
The REALLY weird thing is that me and my partners on this project have the exact same code (from our github repository), and it works on their local machines but it doen't work on mine. Does anyone have any input at all into what's going on?
